In 1985, in Texas, my brother witnessed his girlfriend getting shot dead by her ex, who then proceeded to point the gun at my brother. The gun jammed, the coward ran.

We then got to sit through a trial where this piece of sh:t claimed mental illness, and almost got away with it.

You self-appointed psychologists and holier than thou keyboard jockeys can rest easy knowing that when the report of a murder suicide came out, your response was to feel bad for the one with the gun, and to indignantly chastise and name-call those of us who chose to see it from the real victim's standpoint. And for you, I leave you a question to ponder:

What's the opposite of "above me"?

Horrible story but that gives you the right to crack a joke about it? Call Belcher whatever you want but to crack a joke is an insult to the girl he murdered and to his daughter.

Fortunately your brother survived but suppose it was a football player who had done this and on a mesasge board you see some guy make a crack about you hope it's not because he might have been traded?

The hand-wringing psych-majors act as if your standing over the guys body cracking a joke. See, by them letting you know how terrible you are, they get the smug self-satisfaction of being the glorious bastion of moral outrage. Because all of us are required to shake our respective heads and show the proper amount of devastation learning of some unglued moron's final acts. A bunch of human tampons.

A who says its mental illness. If thats the case every perp sitting in elmira downstate attica has mentall illness. The bottom line is the guy got pissed at pissed at his girlfriend shot her multiple times then when he got to the stadium thought that he probably will be doing 25 to life and took the cowards way out. The only positve in this is the state of kansas is off the hook for paying to put this guy up in prison. This was just another domestic dispute the ended with murder1

oh man, where to begin.

there's a difference between a perp locked up for burglary pleading insanity and a player in a league with a proven history of mental illness caused by the physical nature of the game.

Belcher and his girl were close, personal friends of yours?

No?

If not, what ****ing difference does it make to you what someone says on the internet of all places?

An insult? So what, the internet is full of insults, many vastly worse than this. Comes with fame, people on the internet will mock everything about you, even your death.

So lighten the **** up Internet White Knight, you're services are not needed here, and most of us would take Shakin, a respected member of the community here, over 1,000 big mouth easy-offended-by-proxy white knighting ****ing nobodies like you.

Just Horrible, May they all rest in peace. Feel very bad for Romeo, who really didn't want this job, but let Pioli talk him into it. Soft spoken man with class who doesn't deserve to have this on his head for the rest of his life.

Although never convicted, Shakin actually killed my grandparents with a meat ax. Just sayin'.

The players have a choice to play. Nobody makes them. They are a special breed. Playing in the NFL is an honor.

There is no solution to this head injury problem. The only thing we can do is educate people about the risks and let them make the decision for themselves. I can't hold football responsible b.c medicine and science is just starting to understand brain trauma.

I fear for the future of football.

Serving in the military is an honor, football is a game.

There are solutions to the head injury problem. But you think we shouldn't hold responsible the executives that claim their number one concern is player safety, but simultaneously try to extend the season to 18 games? Let's show more concern for the league facing a controversy. I don't how their multi-billion dollar operation will survive when players, literally, aren't.

I fear for the future of the human beings playing football, not the game itself.
